Children

1. What hopes or fears do you have for your children?

First of all, I hope that my children will be in good health. I have been watching TV about deformed or handicapped children by disease or accident. In that situation, everybody including parents is very miserable and hard to live. Second, I hope my children will go to university, find a nice job, and have a good family. Those are all I hope for my children.

2. What sort of Korea would you like to see your children living in?

First, I hope my children enjoy a free time because children have a very tough life these days. They must study all the time just to have a chance to go to university. They have very little time to play and enjoy as a child. Second, I hope my child to live in a country where there are equality and more opportunities and a more prosperous lifestyle.

3. What sort of culture do you hope your children will grow in?

First, I hope my children enjoy a free time because children have a very tough life these days. They must study all the time just to have a chance to go to university. They have very little time to play and enjoy as a child. Second, I hope my child to know something about Korea's ancient culture and traditions, and also have a chance to combine these with modern society. I don't want him to just accept everything that is western and throw away everything that is Korean. Certainly there are people who just think western things are better than Korean things. I want my children to be proud of his Korean heritage, but also be able to choose the best from the West.
